Can I play with your insides?

I saw another kiddo yesterday at Children's. She is 15 and has a very lengthy history of mental illness. She is diagnosed with Schizophrenia and has been in and out of hospitals and treatment centers since she was 6. For the past week she has been particularly depressed though she couldn't tell me why. She had a relapse in her cutting the week prior and had been thinking about hurting herself and her mother. The night before I met her, she ran away from home for 4 hours where she proceeded to get drunk on vodka and go on a stealing spree. The police found her and brought her home. Yesterday morning, she finalized her plans of how she was going to harm her mom and herself: She was going to take a "pretty knife" that she had in her room (the one she uses for cutting), cut her mother's stomach, rip out her guts and "play with them." She was then going to take the knife and slit her own throat. Lukily she told her PE teacher about her plan and he made sure she got to the emergency room. She begged and pleaded for me not to hospitalize her, but there's no way I was about to send her home. Sorry chica, your fun is going to have to wait for another day.
